What your bulk QC lab actually checks
Representative coarse statistics
A wide free-fall stream and 2 kg samples give statistically sound size and shape on aggregates and granules — sieve-comparable, without the time and error of a sieve stack.
An applications engineer on the line
Feed setup, sieve-correlation and shape method development from engineers who run particle characterization in-house. Sub-4h reply, NDA standard.
The Microtrac CAMSIZER XL is a dynamic image analysis system for coarse and bulk particles — 160 µm to 135 mm, measuring size and 40+ morphology parameters on a wide free-falling stream, with sieve-comparable results for aggregates, granules and proppants.

Why bulk labs choose the CAMSIZER XL
Representative, high-throughput size and shape on coarse material that fine analyzers and manual sieving can’t handle.
Built for coarse and bulk
160 µm to 135 mm in one measurement — aggregates, granules, fertilizer and proppants that fine-powder analyzers and manual sieving handle poorly.
High-throughput free-fall
A high-speed camera images a wide free-falling stream and measures large samples over 2 kg — representative statistics on bulk material, not a tiny sub-sample.
40+ morphology parameters
15 size, 13 shape and 3 surface-roughness measures plus density and transparency — full characterization of coarse particles, not just a size cut.
Sieve replacement for bulk
Sieve-comparable output retires slow, imprecise sieve stacks for aggregates and granules while keeping the mesh specifications customers require.
How Additive Plus supports it
A configured, installed analyzer with a coarse size-and-shape method dialed in.
Configure to your material
We set the feed and free-fall geometry to your particle size and throughput — from granules to coarse aggregate.
Install & train
Factory-trained engineers install and train your team on size, shape and sieve-correlation reporting on-site.
Method & QC support
We build the SOP — sieve-equivalent cuts, shape limits and a lot-to-lot baseline so results stay repeatable.
